I share every one of those views, frustrations, comments. What stunned me is how easily billionaire Trump crosses class lines and income lines. There were some not-rich people there who said “he’s one of us.” Well, they are right. He doesn’t hide behind his money like Hillary or Reid or McCain or some of the others do. Bravo to this group.

I watched several seasons of Celebrity Apprentice several years ago, and was struck at the time of how deeply Trump is invested in bringing people's skills and talents to the fore. He had people on there who were nearly wacko mixed in with people who were masterfully competent, and he was quite even-handed about encouraging each person to use their strengths. Even when he fired people, there was never any animosity; just a clear, straightforward assessment of why their actions didn't advance the ball. I was also struck by how little bitterness has ever come out of people appearing on that show. People do see him as a regular American who made good and has something to teach them. The contestants just automatically call him "Mr. Trump" with a touch of awe. Wacky though he may be at times, his accomplishments do inspire respect among people willing to work.
